Could the Avus Be Built



	I like the idea of a GP1 Car, though it's not too realistic, it would show
Audi as a major player next to the Porsche GT1 and the Mercedes CLK GT
Racer. An Avus would be bad ass.
	On a more realistic front, what if someone built a Replicar like the old
356 Speedsters and the 550 Spyders that Chuck Beck makes on an assembly
line in Brazil. 
	A custom chassis and fiberglass body panels. Would it be possible to coat
the fiberglass with aluminum or make the panels aluminum and fairly cheap.
If the producer raided the Audi partsbin for suspension and drivetrain
parts as well as others like seating and wheels (18" Avus from the S8 of
course). It could be a sweet setup and wouldn't have to adhear to many
tests that a production car would. How about a 4.2L V8 or the S4 2.8TT
engine. Schwing!-G
